A liqueur based on the kernels on certain fruits, such as peaches or cherries.

If this sounds odd, remember that peaches and cherries are closely related to almonds, and so have a lot of flavour that can be extracted.

Literature & Lore
Noyau is a French word meaning "kernel, pit or core". It is closely related to the French word "noix" (nut), as the concepts are similar.
